And The Winner Is!…

We've had an exciting first half of the year at Chef. Between ChefConf last month and announcing Chef Automate 2.0 in addition to our updates to InSpec and the new Chef Workstation, it's an exciting time for us. We're also extremely pleased by our ongoing industry recognition for our continued innovations in digital transformation from some of the industry's premier award programs. Here's a recap of the awards we've taken home in the first half of 2018:

The Cloud Awards program celebrates the brightest and the best in Cloud Computing. Open to organizations across the globe, the Cloud Awards is the first and largest recognition platform of its kind.
